I seriously doubt it dc sgt. The monday morning quartebacks seem to have gone. The crew of Engine 15,Rescue 3 and A-15 did a great job on the grab and go. I’m sure the victims will someday appreciate the fact they did not have a bunch of robots worried about waststraps.

wonder if any of these nutless wonders possess the testicular fortitude to visit the quarters of E15/RS3 and express their displeasure with how things are done by the DCFD…….I doubt it

I have no idea who ” DC Firefighter say” is, but I want to say, it’s one of the BEST thought out and well written things I’ve read in a LONG time. 90% of the DC Firefighters feel the same way you do, we only dream we could put it in the words you did. Thank you.

I’m always reluctant about commenting on a forum when the pot has been stirred. DC Firefighter, well stated. I wholeheartedly agree that today’s fire service is turning S-O-F-T. It seems that every new guy that walks in the door needs to be built up and reassured that they are doing a good job. Grow up! Your mommy does not work here! I love to see folks critique others while sitting in anonymity behind their desktop, knowing full well that they had done the same thing they just watched the shift before. Yeah, I saw a few things on the video that could have been done differently, but those who live in glass houses should not throw rocks. Not a single fireman (Yeah, I said it, fireman) has ever been to a fire where every single thing went right.

Great job to the 3rd. I see no point in you idiots even commenting if your not going to give any background of your experience or leave your name. Don’t be a weak individual. leave your name and deal with your stupid comments.

Again, great job!!!

You would think that a guy in the military would have the common sense to GET THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY and let those guys do their job! What was that clown doing??? I hope his CO sees him and chews his ass…

I’m still waiting for you guys to post your “How it’s really done” videos. I’m sure you guys go by “Bull” or “Axe” around the firhouse so you must have something good to put on here and teach us. Where’s Hookman with some good comments for these guys?

Hey Truckie and Pat on the back, your best bet is to cross the street. Stay out of the way and you too will be ok.

Nice Job brothers.
